In addition to the export options shared earlier in this chapter, macOS users have a couple of additional choices: sharing to Messages and AirDrop. These options make it easy to share photos via text message from your computer or with another macOS or iOS device nearby.

Messages on macOS allows you to send text messages to users with an iCloud account or wireless phone users if you have an iPhone associated with your iCloud account.

- Click the People icon in the left sidebar, and select a person.
- Click the info icon at the top of the right sidebar to reveal the right panel and access the Info Panel.
- Click on the chat bubble icon at the top of the Info Panel to create a text message with every photo that person is tagged in.

AirDrop on macOS allows you to wirelessly share photos with nearby macOS and iOS users.
